Palmer Lake State Water Access Site

Palmer Lake is a 146-acre lake in Hubbard County near Menahga, Minnesota, offering a public boat launch for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboaters. With a maximum depth of 21 feet, the lake provides a moderate-sized paddling destination suitable for various skill levels. The boat ramp accommodates most 12-18 foot vessels, making it accessible for recreational boaters and paddlers launching small to medium-sized watercraft.

This access point has no launch fees (unless located within a park requiring a vehicle permit), making it an affordable option for a day outing. Paddlers should verify current conditions and specific facility amenities by checking the Minnesota DNR Lake Finder or contacting local resources before visiting, as facilities and seasonal access may vary.
